“Maybe there will be a reminder at a certain point in time. There might be an answer on these stars,” Nicole said.
Ike and Harvey looked upward to study it carefully. “Look, there‘s the Big Dipper in the Milky Way.”
Ike pointed with his finger.
“The answer should be in the Big Dipper,” Nicole said with confidence.
“As far as I know, ancient people determine the seasons according to the position of the seven stars of the Big Dipper with the bucket handle east pointing, indicating the arrival of spring, the bucket handle south pointing, the arrival of summer, the bucket handle west pointing, fall harvest, the bucket handle north pointing, all things hide in the winter. It is likely that this level was made using this theory because few people abroad know about it, and it is evident that the owner of this experience center is a local.”
“Makes sense. Let‘s study it.” Harvey looked up with a serious face.
The Milky Way disappeared all of a sudden, and the time compass reappeared. Ten minutes had passed, and they would fail if they had not completed the level in another twenty minutes.
“Let‘s all take a closer look,” Nicole said.
The Milky Way reappeared, and the three of them concentrated on studying the mysteries of the Big Dipper. After a long while of examination, Nicole found that there was a bucket handle in the south, east, north, and west, and it seemed to be necessary to choose one of these four bucket handles.
“Do you see anything, Mr. Ellison?” Ike did not understand the theory of the ancients, so he could not read it.
Harvey took a deep breath, then spoke with a thoughtful look.
“According to my analysis , the seven stars of the Big Dipper are brighter in the south, and the passage should be the mirror door that the south finger of the bucket handle points to.”
He did not forget to look to Nicole for confirmation.
” What do you think, Nicole?”
“I also think it‘s the mirror door pointed to by the southern finger of the bucket handle.”
Harvey instantly looked up at Ike cockily.
“Am I right?”
“But I see it differently than you do. I didn‘t think that when I saw that bright south finger of the bucket handle; I think this level is designed according to the actual season outside. Now it is summer outside, so the mirror door pointed by the south finger of the bucket handle should be the passage through the level,” Nicole said.
“Nicole has a point, too.” Harvey knew for sure that Nicole‘s analysis was more accurate. “Then let‘s go into that mirrored door, shall we?” Ike looked at the two of them.
“Okay.” Nicole led the way in.
As they came in front of the mirror door, Nicole looked back at them.
“Are you guys sure you want to come in with me?”
The two of them nodded and looked at Nicole with serious faces.
“Good.” Nicole pushed open the door and stepped inside. Inside was dark, and there was a glimmer of light gradually becoming visible as they went further. Nicole felt relieved at the sight of the light; she knew the next level must be ahead. Sure enough, as they walked out, they came to the second level.
“Yes! We‘re through.” Harvey and Ike happily raised their thumbs at Nicole.
“Don‘t get too happy too soon. There is a second level waiting for us.” Nicole looked at the level in front of her and had no joy to speak of. She really could not understand why she agreed to Ike earlier.
“Let‘s go and see what‘s on the second level.” Nicole remained at the front.
The second level was brightly lit, so it did not feel so scary. The three of them stood in an empty space where there was no equipment, no hints, not even a door. “Where‘s the door? How come there‘s nothing there?” Harvey looked around and saw nothing.
“This level is kind of fun.” Nicole looked around with interest. It would be a waste of time for her if there was no difficulty in the game.
“What do you mean? How do you get through with nothing?” Harvey looked at Nicole.
“Maybe there‘s everything here. We just can‘t see it,” Nicole said.
